Report – Portugal – Braga
The Technical School “Ivan Sarić” is participating in another Erasmus+ project this school year, titled “Solar Village.” Partners in this project are schools from Slovenia, Portugal, Latvia, Turkey, and Italy. From October 9th to 12th,2024 five students and a teacher from our school were staying in Portugal for the introductory meeting, where they became acquainted with the goals and tasks of the project. This was followed by presentations from the school teams and lectures in which our representatives actively participated. During the stay, the guest schools learned about the rich history and culture of Braga and Guimarães, where Portugal was “born.” Strengthened by new acquaintances and knowledge, we are now starting preparations for the next meeting, when we will have the opportunity to host six students and one teacher from Portugal.
